Life 101: Don't Bring on the Hate

You are stronger than you think. When faced with adversities, we can easily think it's the end of the world. Everyone's entitled to their own opinions but its really sad when they use their negativeness to influence other people and bring on the hatred towards people who meant no harm to them.

Everywhere you go, there is bound to be discrimination. Basically if you don't fit into their idealistic world, you will seem to be like an outsider. For me, I've gone through a lot when I was younger so I know what it is like to be an outsider. That is why I don't quickly form my own judgments being always judged wrongly and then not given the opportunity to show them who I really am.

Even then, I used to be one of those people who tend to stereotype others because everyone seems to think that way and to think otherwise will seem strange and...different. I am easily influenced by what others think and is quick to agree with them.

But as I grew older, I learn that not everything that is hated or condoned by others is meant to be hated. We don't always have to agree with what others think or what others do. Let them have strong opinion about something but you don't always have to join them in their opinions especially when all they feel is hatred towards somebody else who have no form of influence over them.

Personally, I have nothing against homosexuals but in Singapore, it is like some kind of disease. And no, I am not of those girls who enjoy seeing gays make out because it's a turn on. Pfft. I just think that well, they are entitled to live on their own terms and basically they're just human beings with their own personalities and we are all different from one another just like you may prefer black and I may prefer pink colour. Don't have to turn up your nose against them. Their sexual preference is theirs. Not meant for you to criticize.

Like I said, everywhere we go, we may face discrimination at workplace, at school, public places and etc. Even in a liberal country like America, not only do discrimination exist, what is even worse is the violence that can take place born out of this extreme form of hatred and discrimination. Then, these people don't have a single form of remorse and continued to be let off the hook even though what they have done is morally wrong such as injuring or killing the victims.

So if you're one of them who belong to the category where you often get picked on just because you're 'different' from them, don't think that this the end of it. There are other people who have moved on in life and even find happiness because they don't let their lives be dictated by the haters.

I started writing again in my journal when I came across an old notebook where I did some creative writing and then reminisce about the time I didn't have any internet at home. I didn't even have a computer. At some point, I did have and back then was the dial up internet, lol. But it was still a form of entertainment, at a much slower speed, haha.Anyway, I was also thinking how simpler life was back then and how less dependent we were on our phones and the internet. So I relied on writing and there was no online journal so I wrote inside my notebooks. Honestly it was quite embarrassing reading through them but these pages shaped my world back then. I stopped writing for quite a while this year because I didn't feel like it. It's also as though I'm repeating myself. I would say that I promise to do this or that but never seem to come around and do something progressive. I feel as though I reset my life so many times without any much progress. So perhaps I would ta…

Last week, we rounded up our Marina Bay Carnival 2018 with the games, which we sucked at by the way. Honestly it was annoying how we throw money away like that, haha. We had enough rides..or rather had enough with rides, gosh that Viking ride made me broke out in sweat. I still don't understand how people can do an IG story/selfie/wefie while they were on that Viking ride that swing like a damn pendulum.Anyway, we started off with the Euro Ride which was fun but alas, too brief. I think there were like two points that plunged down when we reached the top and then we were back to square one. It would have been better if we went at least two rounds but oh well. Now the Viking, that felt like forever, haha.I told myself not to scream and though I didn't give out a girly scream, it was more of an exhilirating scream while looking at the guy sitting opposite, with a face who couldn't care less. I was thinking, don't you feel anything? The various reactions on the ride.I was…
